To add a custom post type or post to WooCommerce, follow these steps:

  1. Register the custom post type: You can use the register_post_type function to create a new custom post type in WordPress. You can add this function in your theme's functions.php file or in a custom plugin. Here is an example code snippet to register a custom post type:

function custom_post_type() {
    register_post_type('custom_post_type', array(
        'labels' => array(
            'name' => __('Custom Post Type'),
            'singular_name' => __('Custom Post Type'),
        ),
        'public' => true,
        'has_archive' => true,
        'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail'),
    ));
}
add_action('init', 'custom_post_type');


  1. Add posts to the custom post type: Once you have registered the custom post type, you can start adding posts to it. You can go to the WordPress admin dashboard and navigate to 'Custom Post Type' > 'Add New' to create a new post for your custom post type.
  2. Display custom post type in WooCommerce: To integrate your custom post type with WooCommerce, you can use hooks and filters to modify the default WooCommerce output. You can create custom templates or modify existing templates to display your custom post type in the WooCommerce shop.
  3. Add custom fields: You can add custom fields to your custom post type using plugins like Advanced Custom Fields or by adding custom metaboxes in your theme's functions.php file.


By following these steps, you can successfully add a custom post type or post to WooCommerce.
